November is already half over, and this is my first post of the month. I want to make sure to post my garden, and some updates. I have two tiny persimmon trees, and they have generously produced some fruits. I love persimmons, as I grew up with them, and they also have the vibrant orange color I associate with fall – so pretty!
And, I finally got a new sewing machine! Love love love my new Janome:
Here is a pillow that I made. A few of my quilty friends have been making them. You cut out flowers and leaves from printed fabrics, lay them out, sew them on using free motion, and voila! – a pretty decorative pillow. This method is really good for practicing free motion – very forgiving:
And, more fabric to play with 🙂 :

You’ve been missed. Glad all is well and that you are having fun playing with a new sewing machine. Happy November! Gorgeous fabrics too.
Love your fabrics! I have thought about getting a new machine , a light weight one to take to classes…we’ll see…Christmas is coming!!!
